Local Man’s Roots Ran Deep on Veterans Day

San Angelo is the best community when it comes to bringing people together.

With all the ugliness and hate on Facebook, I came across this gem and wanted to share it with the public. James Hughes' flowerbed can be seen from the street on College Hills and Palo Duro Drive. He posted to San Angelo Swap and Sell with this message.

This is my new flower bed I've dedicated to ALL who have Served, sacrificed, and Protected this Nation so that we are free. I want to Thank each and every Member that has served including my wife Tsgt. Colleen Hughes Ret. and my son Cpo. Waymonlee Hughes active duty Marine. Thank You and God Bless each of you and your families

This is a prime example of bringing positivity and joy to the Concho Valley! Thanks, James.
